smartmontools controls and monitors storage devices using the
63
Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology System (S.M.A.R.T.)
64
built into ATA and SCSI Hard Drives. This is used to check the
65
reliability of the hard drive and to predict drive failures. The suite
66
is derived from the smartsuite package, and contains two utilities. The
67
first, smartctl, is a command line utility designed to perform simple
68
S.M.A.R.T. tasks. The second, smartd, is a daemon that periodically
69
monitors smart status and reports errors to syslog. The package is
70
compatible with the ATA/ATAPI-5 specification. Future releases will be
71
compatible with the ATA/ATAPI-6 andATA/ATAPI-7 specifications. The
72
package is intended to incorporate as much "vendor specific" and
73
"reserved" information as possible about disk drives. man smartctl and
74
man smartd will provide more information. This RPM file is compatible
75
with all RedHat releases back to at least 6.2 and should work OK on any
76
modern linux distribution. The most recent versions of this package and
77
additional information can be found at the URL:

Die smartmontools steuern und �berwachen Speicherger�te mittels des
100
S.M.A.R.T.-Systems (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology,
101
Technologie zur Selbst-�berwachung, Analyse und Berichterstellung), das
102
in ATA- und SCSI-Festplatten eingesetzt wird. Sie werden benutzt, um
103
die Zuverl�ssigkeit der Festplatte zu pr�fen und Plattenfehler
104
vorherzusagen. Die Suite wurde vom smartsuite-Paket abgeleitet und
105
enth�lt zwei Dienstprogramme. Das erste, smartctl, ist ein
106
Kommandozeilentool, das einfache S.M.A.R.T. Aufgaben ausf�hrt. Das
107
zweite, smartd, ist ein Daemon, der periodisch den S.M.A.R.T.-Status
108
�berwacht und Fehler ins Syslog protokolliert. Das Paket ist zur
109
ATA/ATAPI-5 Spezifikation kompatibel. Zuk�nftige Versionen werden auch
110
die ATA/ATAPI-6 und ATA/ATAPI-7 Spezifikationen umsetzen. Das Paket
111
versucht, so viele "herstellerspezifische" und "reservierte" Information
112
�ber Plattenlaufwerke wie m�glich bereitzustellen. man smartctl und man
113
smartd liefern mehr Informationen �ber den Einsatz. Dieses RPM ist zu
114
allen RedHat-Versionen ab sp�testens 6.2 kompatibel und sollte unter
115
jedem modernen Linux arbeiten. Die aktuellsten Versionen dieses Pakets

El conjunto de programas proviene del conjunto smartsuite y contiene dos
125
utilidades. La primera, smartctl, es una utilidad command-line hecha
126
para hacer operaciones S.M.A.R.T. sencillas. La segunda, smartd, es un
127
programa que periodicamente chequea el estatus smart e informa de

errores a syslog. Estos programas son compatibles con el sistema
129
ATA/ATAPI-5. Futuras versiones seran compatibles con los sistemas
130
ATA/ATAPI-6 y ATA/ATAPI-7. Este conjunto de programas tiene el
131
proposito de incorporar la mayor cantidad posible de informacion
132
reservada y especifica de discos duros. Los comandos 'man smartctl' y
133
'man smartd' contienen mas informacion. Este fichero RPM es compatible
134
con todas las versiones de RedHat a partir de la 6.2 y posiblemente

451
'-d sat,<n>' where <n> can be 0, 12 or 16 . The ',<n>' part
452
is optional. Currently defaults to 16 byte variant but that
453
could be made platform or even device dependent.
454
[DG] [SATA] Add new 'sat' device type for SATA disks behind a
455
SCSI to ATA Translation (SAT) Layer (SATL). Uses the ATA
456
PASS THROUGH (16) SCSI command thence the generic SCSI
457
passthrough for each platform.
458
[CF] Windows: Added script and make targets to create installer
459
with NSIS (http://nsis.sourceforge.net/)
460
[CF] Updated hostname and links for new SourceForge CVS service.
461
[CF] smartd: Added '-W' directive to track temperature changes
462
and warn if temperature limits are reached.
463
[CF] Windows: Added IOCTL_ATA_PASS_THROUGH (Win2003, XP SP2)
464
for commands unsupported by SMART_IOCTL. Added device
465
specific options to select subset and ordering of the ATA
466
IOCTLs actually used. These options are specified as
467
modifiers of the device name (/dev/hd[a-j]:[saic]+)
468
[CF] Windows: Added support for drives 4-7 (/dev/hd[e-h]) via
469
SMARTVSE.VXD on Win9x/ME. Thanks to Dariusz Rzonca for
471
[DG] [SCSI/SATA linux] from lk 2.6.17 SATA disk identification in
472
libata will change. Expand LibAta detection to see old
473
identifier and new variant (VPD page 0x83).
474
[BA] Identified Attribute 190 for Western Digital disks. This
475
stores temperature in Celsius, just like Attribute 194.
476
But it has a failure threshold set to correspond to the
477
maximum design operating temperature of the disk, which
478
is 55 Celsius on the WD800JD drives that I studied.
479
So if this Attribute has 'failed
480
in the past' this means that the maximum disk operating
481
temperature has been exceeded.
482
[GK] Darwin: Add support for AHCI drivers found in Intel-based Macs.

syslogd support added in Cygwin 1.5.15.
522
[CF] Windows: Added patch to avoid output of non-ascii timezone names.
523
[EM] Incorporate various patches to provide TWE support and support for
524

550
[CF] Windows smartd: Added ability to run .bat files via '-M exec'
552
[CF] Cygwin smartd: Added FreeConsole() after fork() to avoid hang
553
of terminated shell console window.
554
[DG] [SCSI] Add code so 'smartctl -A' outputs the number of elements
555
in the grown defect list. When this number is increasing a
556
disk has problems. N.B. Similar logic should be added to smartd.
557
[CF] Windows smartd: Fixed event handling to allow start of another
558
smartd process when service is already running. Useful for testing
559
service configuration changes in debug mode.
560
[PW] Added following drives to knowndrives table: Western Digital Raptor
561
family, Seagate Barracuda 7200.8 family, Maxtor DiamondMax 2160

automatic save attributes incorrectly. Thanks to Roy Badami.
572
[BA] Linux: smartd init script now recognizes 'trustix' distro.
573
[DG] [SCSI] Medium and hardware errors were slipping through
574
unreported. Fix linux SCSI sense reporting via SG_IO ioctl.
575
[DG] [SCSI] Change lba of first failure in selftest output to
576
decimal (was hex) to conform with ATA output.
577
[GK] smartd: Detect most self-test failures even if the hour counter
579
[BA] smartctl: list 'marvell' as option if user give invalid
581
[CF] Windows: fixed SCSI timeout handling to allow long timeouts
583
[CF] Fixed buffer overflow issues in printone() and safe_vsnprintf()
584
which results in crash on -V option (at least on Windows).
585
[DG] [SCSI] Add explicit timeouts to INQUIRY and REQUEST SENSE (that
586
were missed in an earlier patch). Could have impacted freebsd.
587
[DG] When linux detects a sata_via_libata disk suggest that user try
588
'-d ata' (rather then '-d libata). Anticipate kernel change.
589
[YD] Added OS/2 and eComStation platform support.
590
[PW] Added Seagate U4 family, Fujitsu MHJ and MHK families, Seagate
591

592
and ExcelStor J340 to knowndrives table.
593
[DG] [SCSI] After report of Hitachi IC35L073UCDY10 disks locking up
594
on log page 0x7 (last n error events), check log page (and some
595
others) is supported (via log page 0x0) before probing.
596
[CF] Added safe_v?snprintf() for platforms using v?snprintf()
597
with non standard behaviour on overflow (Windows, old Linux)
598
[CF] smartd: Added message if check power mode spins up disk.
599
[CF] Windows: Added support for READ_LOG on WinNT4 using undocumented
600
pseudo SCSI command via IOCTL_SCSI_PASS_THROUGH.
601
[CF] smartd: Added ',q' option for '-n' directive to suppress 'skipping
602
checks' log message. This prevents a laptop disk from spinning up
603
due to this message. Thanks to Rob MacLachlan and Manfred Schwarb
604
for pointing out problem & solution.
605
[CF] Windows: Added function get_os_version_str() to show OS flavor in
607
[CF] Windows: Added function ata_identify_is_cached() to check for outdated
608
SMART enabled bit in identify data.
609
[CF] Windows: Added fix to prevent linkage of smartd specific win32 modules
611
[PW] Added Fujitsu MPG3153AH, Hitachi Endurastar J4K20/N4K20 (formerly
612
DK23FA-20J), Seagate Momentus family, and Maxtor Fireball 3 family
613
to knowndrives table.
614
[PW] Added missing Maxtor DiamondMax 16, Seagate Barracuda ATA IV, and
615
Western Digital Caviar WDxxxAA/WDxxxBA drives to knowndrives table.
616
[CF] Windows: Added ATA check power mode for smartd -n directive.
617
[CF] Windows: Fixed use of new service status flag which causes hang
618
of smartd service on WinNT4.
619
[CF] Windows: Fixed error checking of IOCTL_IDE_PASS_THROUGH (used
620
for READ_LOG on 2000/XP). Added some diagnostic messages on
621
-r ataioctl[,2]. Thanks to Manfred Schwarb for bug report and testing.
622
[BA] Fixed code bug that made it impossible to enable SMART on
623
disks with failing health status. This would happen if the
624
os_*.c author made STATUS and STATUS_CHECK work the same way.
625
I have corrected this at a higher level; we now handle the
626
case where STATUS and STATUS_CHECK are identical without
628
[LW] Make os_linux.c/marvell_command_interface() always return 0 on STATUS.
629
Needed for a disk having bad SMART status.
630
[CF] smartctl: Added drive family printing.
631
[CF] autogen.sh: Allow automake 1.9, added message if automake
633
[BA] smartctl: use locale-specific separators for printing disk
634
capacity. Also use AC_CHECK_HEADERS not AC_CHECK_HEADER in
636
[BA] clean-up of #include structure so that -V options to smartd
637
and smartctl work correctly. Please, don't #include header
638
files into other header files.
640
* Fri Sep 10 2004 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
641
[BA] smartctl: ATA disks, if SMART ATTRIBUTE THRESHOLDS page has ID
642
errors with some Attributes having NULL IDs, print Attribute
643
info anyway (but issuing a warning to the user).
644
[DG] [SCSI] Decode Last n error events log page; decode track following
645
and positioning errors [Hitachi]
646
[EM] FreeBSD: another tweak, __packed__ introduced in Version 5.0040
647
[EM] Cleaner tweak of fixes for FreeBSD 4.x.
648
[EM] Fix compilation errors under FreeBSD 4.x, as it is still using
650
[EM] Remove 3ware/FreeBSD specific files and just include pieces we need
651
[DG] Add logic in smartd to detect 3ware, Marvell controllers and SATA
652
disks behind an ATA-SCSI simulator (in Linux). If specific device
653
types are not given and they are picked in a general SCSI device
654
scan then warn and skip.
655
[GG] insert correct path to smartd into smartd's init script
656
[BA] Changed all default paths in documentation to reflect /usr/local as
657
default path prefix. This affects on-line man pages, primarily.
658
[DS] Added support for OpenBSD.
659
[BA] Added another environment variable SMART_FULLMESSAGE set by
660
the smartd mailing feature, and modified examplescripts/Example1

668
and suggest usage of appropriate '-d' argument in smartctl.
669
[LW] Tested the RELEASE_5_33_WITH_MARVELL_SUPPORT branch on
670
actual Marvell 88SX5041 hardware, with success.
672
[BA] Fixed nasty DEVICESCAN bug
673
[BA] Checked in RELEASE_5_33_WITH_MARVELL_SUPPORT branch with
674
some Marvell support.
675
[BA] Additional modifications of Ed's controller scheme. Fixed
676
broken 3ware support under linux, problems with scanning
677
devices in smartd, and other small problems.
678
[EM] Minor change to FreeBSD inclusion of 'twe' include files. Add
679
code to check if they exising in /usr/include/sys to use those
680
in preference to ones added here
681
[EM] Very preliminary support attempt for 3Ware controllers under
682
FreeBSD. Also, switched 'escalade_type/escalade_port' to
683
'controler_type/controller_port' and moved away from
684
'tryata/tryscsi' to using new 'controller*' variables to
685
determine which controller type (ATA/SCSI/3Ware) to use.
686
[GK] Added initscript support for Darwin.
687
[CF] Windows smartd: Added ability to run smartd as a windows service,
688
including new commands "smartd install ..." and "smartd remove"
689
to install and remove the service registry entry.
690
[BA] smartd: warn user if -s regexp regular expression contains
691
characters other than 0123456789.*()|+?[-]{}:=SLCO since such
692
characters are 'suspicous' and may indicate a poorly formed
693
regexp. Extended regular expression gurus: can this list be
695
[CF] Fixed bug in Windows smartd: Missing close of config file when
696
configuration is reloaded by smartd daemon.
697
[CF] Windows smartd: Added mail warning feature using the "Blat"
698
(http://blat.sourceforge.net/) mailer as a default.
699
[PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 5120 Ultra ATA 33 series and TOSHIBA
700
MK3017GAP to knowndrives table.

718
QUANTUM FIREBALL ST3.2A
719
[BA] smartd/smarctl now print build HOST/OS information as part
720
of startup slogan. This should make it slightly easier to
721
read bug reports from users.
722
[RZ] Fixed the DEVICESCAN to do what it was supposed to do - give
723
error message unless scanning is in progress.
724
[BA] Update documentation to describe 3ware character devices. Better
725
error detection for missing/malfunctioning devices behind 3ware
726
controllers. Now pack 3ware ioctl structures explicitly.
727
[BA] For ATA devices that support LBA mode, print capacity as part
729
[RZ] Made DEVICESCAN quiet about non-existing devices unless debug
731
[DG] treat "unit attention" SCSI warning as try again in some contexts
732
(test unit ready and mode sense)
733
[BA] on drives that store max/min rather than min/max, get order
734
correct in printing temp.
735
[BA] fixed typo in 'smartctl -h' output. Thanks to Gabor Z. Papp.
736
[BA] linux: clean-up to 3ware/AMCC support; dynamically create
737
or fix /dev/tw[ae][0-15] device node entries if they don't
738
exist or are incorrect. One can now use the character devices
739
/dev/twe[0-15] OR /dev/sd? for 3ware 6000/7000/8000 series
740
cards. One must use /dev/twa[0-15] for 3ware 9000 series cards.
741
Note that selective self-tests now work via /dev/tw[ae] devices.
742
Next step: documentation.
743
[BA] linux: experimental "support" for 3ware/AMCC 9000 series
744
controllers that use the 3w-9xxx driver. This will be in a
745
state of flux for a few days. Note that this requires the
746
character interface /dev/twa[0-15].
747
[DG] linux: extend general SCSI OS interface to use the SG_IO ioctl. If
748
not available, use the older SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND ioctl.
749
[KS] Solaris/x86: fixed system identification problem in configure
750
script. Thanks to Stuart Swales.

786
for glibc. Note: this might not be right -- a similar bug may
787
exist in other platform's libcs.
788
[DG] SCSI smartmontools documentation updated [2004/5/6]. See:
789
http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/smartmontools_scsi.html

818
Currently they are enabled by default.
819
[CF] Added option -c FILE, --configfile=FILE to smartd to specify
820
an alternate configuration FILE or '-' for standard input.
821
[KS] configure.in now searches for -lnsl and -lsocket for Solaris.
822
[CF] Win32/native smartd: Added thread to combine several syslog output
823
lines into one single event log entry.
824
[CF] Win32 smartd: Added DEVICESCAN for SCSI/ASPI devices.
825
[GG] Use gethostbyname() the get the DNS domain since getdomainname()
826
returns the NIS domain when sending mails from smartd.
827
[GG] smartd.init.in: pass smartd_opts to smartd on startup, read distribution
828
specific configuration files if found
829
[SS] smartctl: added NetBSD support for Selective Self-tests.
830
[BA] smartd.conf example configuration file now has all examples
831
commented out except for 'DEVICESCAN'.
832
[CF] Win32/native smartd: Added ability to display warning "emails"
833
as message box by "-m msgbox" directive. With "-m sysmsgbox",
834
a system modal (always on top) message box is shown.
835
[BA] smartctl: printing of self-test log for disks that support
836
Selective self-testing now shows the status of the (optional)
837
read-scan after the selective self test. Also, changed format
838
in printing self-test log to print failing LBA in base 10 not
839
base 16 (more compatible with kernel error messages). Also,
840
in printing SMART error log, print timestamps in format
841
days+hours+minutes+seconds.
842
[CF] Win32 smartd: Added ability to log to stdout/stderr
843
(-l local1/2). Toggling debug console still works
844
if stdout is redirected.
845
[BA] smartctl: selective self-test log, print current status
846
in a more detailed way. Allow writing of selective self-test
847
log provided that no other self-test is underway.
848
[BA] Linux: eliminated dependency on kernel tree hdreg.h.
849
[BA] smartctl: -l selftest option now prints Selective self-test
850
log in addition to the normal self-test log.
851
Added additional options (-t pending, -t afterselect) to
852
control remaining Selective Self-test capabilities. Tested
853
with several Maxtor disks. Modified error message printing
854
so that munged option messages print at the end not the
856
[CF] Added daemon support to Win32 native version of smartd.
857
The daemon can be controlled by commands similar to initd
858
scripts: "smartd status|stop|reload|restart|sigusr1|sigusr2".
859
[CF] Added minor support for option "-l local[0-7]" to Win32 native
860
(not Cygwin) version of smartd. If specified, the log output
861
is written to file "./smartd[1-7]?.log" instead of event log.
862
[BA] Added Selective Self-test to smartctl (-t selective,M-N).
863
Currently only supported under Linux; Solaris, NetBSD, FreeBSD
864
and Windows developers must add WRITE LOG functionality to
866
[BA] Added workaround for an annoying glibc bug: if you change
867
timezones, (eg, flying with a laptop from USA to Europe)
868
localtime() does not notice this in a running
869
executable, so time that appears in the system log (syslog!)
870
will be incorrect. See
871
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=48184
872
for additional examples of this bug.
873
[DG] Set explicit timeouts for SCSI commands (most default to 6 seconds).
874
Previously a 0 second timeout was meant to be interpreted as a
875
default timeout but the FreeBSD port had a problem in this area.
876
[CF] Fixed un-thread-safe exit signal handler for Win32
877
[BA] Fixed un-thread-safe exit signal handler pointed out
879
[BA] Changed configure script to eliminate warnings under
880
Solaris from sys/int_type.h conflicts with int64.h
881
Added header files for umask to smartd.c.
882
[BA] Man page format change from Werner LEMBERG. " " changed to \&
883
[CF] Added os_win32/syslogevt.* event message file tool for Win32
884
smartd (native+cygwin). May also be useful for other cygwin
885
programs writing to syslog().
886
[CF] Added Win32 version of smartd
887
[CF] Merged RELEASE_5_26_WIN32_BRANCH
888
[BA] Made some changes to man page markup suggested by
889
Richard Verhoeven to work around bugs in man2html.
890
Tested not to break anything under Linux and Solaris.
891
[CF] Moved PrintOut() from utility.c to smart{ctl,d}.c to avoid
892
syslog() output of smartctl.
893
[BA] Grew worried that some time-zone names could be very long (eg,
894
Mitteleuropaische Zeit) and put date string lengths into a
895
single macro in utility.c
896
[EM] Updated os_freebsd.c to handle older versions of FreeBSD in a
897
more appropriate/obvious fashion.
898
[EM] Modified autogen.sh as FreeBSD installs automake 1.7 as
899
'automake17' and NOT 'automake-1.7'
901
* Sat Mar 6 2004 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
902
[PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALLlct15 30, QUANTUM FIREBALLlct20 40, and
903
Maxtor 6Y060P0 (DiamondMax Plus 9 60GB) to knowndrives table.
904
[PW] Added Maxtor MaXLine II family to knowndrives table (thanks to
905
Brett Russ for submitting the patch).
906
[BA] Added remaining read/write commands to detailed list of
907
error log commands that have text descriptions of problem
908
printed. For commands that support it, print number of failed
909
sectors at problem LBA.
910
[BA] Made SuSE section of smartd init script more SuSE 9 compatible.
911
Thanks to Hans-Peter Jansen.
912
[CF] Windows smartd: Added IDE/ATA device scan
913
Added windows device names to smartctl.8.in, smartd.8.in
914
[BA] smartctl/smartd: user-provided '-F samsung' and '-F samsung2'
915
command line options/Directives did NOT over-ride preset values
916
unless user specified '-P ignore'. Now they will always over-ride
917
preset values from the database.
918
[BA] Added error decoding for a few more READ and WRITE commands.
919
[PW] Added Maxtor MaXLine Plus II, Western Digital Caviar SE (Serial ATA)
920
series, Hitachi Deskstar 7K250 series, and Ultra ATA 66 models of
921
the Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 40 series to knowndrives table.
922
[BA] Added Maxtor Diamondmax 250 GB drives to database. Note that
923
these model numbers are not listed in Maxtor documentation, but
925
[BA] Removed the 'contact developers' phrase from the Samsung disk
927
[PW] Added TOSHIBA MK2017GAP, IBM Deskstar 14GXP and 16GP series,
928
Fujitsu MPC series, Seagate Barracuda ATA III family, and missing
929
Seagate Barracuda U Series drives to knowndrives table
930
[BA] smartd: wrong loglevel for message: Configuration file
931
/etc/smartd.conf parsed. Changed to LOG_INFO from LOG_CRIT.
932
Thanks to Emmanuel CHANTREAU for the report.
933
[CF] Checked in development version of windows code base.
935
* Tue Feb 24 2004 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
936
[BA] smartd: configure script did not set correct directory to search for
937
smartd.conf based on --prefix argument to ./configure. Thanks to
938
GG for identifying the problem and fix.
939
[BA] make clean now removes man pages (generated from *.in) files as well
941
[EM] Correct copying of sense data in FreeBSD SCSI implementation. Thanks
942
to Sergey Svishchev for noticing the bug.
943
[BA] On solaris, wrong warning message if no ATA support. Warning message
944
concerns 3ware controller, not ATA.
945
[SS] Added SCSI support for NetBSD.
946
[BA] on big-endian linux machines, fixed interpretation of HDIO_GET_IDENTITY
947
to correctly identify ATAPI bit (was byte swapped). This should
948
eliminate some SYSLOG noise if user queries a packet device (eg, CD
950
[PW] Removed warning for IBM Deskstar 40GV & 75GXP series drives with
951
A5AA/A6AA firmware. Thanks to Gerald Schnabel.
952
[PW] Added Toshiba TOS MK3019GAXB SUN30G to knowndrives table
953
[PW] Added Western Digital Caviar AC12500, AC24300, AC25100, AC36400,
954
and AC38400 to knowndrives table
955
[BA] When printing ATA error log, print the LBA at which READ
956
or WRITE commands failed.
957
[BA] Changed syntax of error message in smartctl
958
[BA] Added versioning info (-V options to smartd/smartctl) for
961
* Thu Feb 12 2004 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
962
[KS] Added ATA/IDE support for Solaris/SPARC (ATA/IDE not yet for
964
[BA] 3ware controllers: documented that one can monitor any of the
965
physical disks from any of the 3ware /dev/sd? logical devices.
966
Better warnings if querying a disk that does not exist.
967
[PW] Added Hitachi Travelstar DK23DA series, Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 40
968
series, Western Digital Caviar WDxxxAA, WDxxxBA, and WDxxxAB series
970
[BA] missing 'pragma pack' on ATA IDENIFY DEVICE structure may have
971
caused odd or incorrect results on 64-bit machines.
972
[BA] smartctl/smartd allow inspection of self-test and error logs even
973
if disk firmware claims that these don't exist. This is needed
974
for some Maxtor disks whose firmware does not indicate log support
975
even though the disk DOES support it.
976
[BA] Improved porting instructions and documentation in os_generic.c
977
[PW] Add Western Digital Caviar WD136AA and SAMSUNG SP40A2H (RR100-07
978
firmware) to knowndrives table.
979
[EM] FreeBSD: remove extra definition of FreeNonZero
980
[BA] smartctl: the -q silent option was printing output for some
981
error conditions. Fixed. Will rename relevant variables to help
982
avoid these errors in the future.
983
[SS] NetBSD port added.
984
[BA] more sensible error messages for devfs and devfs-like systems.
985
Instead of saying that the DIRECTORY does not exist, say that
986
the DEVICE does not exist.
987
[BA] smartd: added -n Directive, to prevent disk spin-up depending
988
upon the power mode (SLEEP, STANDBY, or IDLE).
989
[PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax 20 VL series, Fujitsu MPF series,
990
Maxtor DiamondMax 36 series, Maxtor DiamondMax 4320 series, and
991
Maxtor DiamondMax 536DX series to knowndrives table.
992
[BA] many warning messages now give the file name AND VERSION
993
[BA] smartd: when the user provides multiple address recipients
994
to the '-m' Directive in a comma-delineated list, the commas
995
are stripped out before passing the list of addresses to the
996
mailer program. (Thanks to Calin A. Culianu for pointing this out
997
and providing a patch.)
998
[BA] smartd: when the '-M exec path' Directive is used, any stdout OR
999
stderr output from the executable "path" is assumed to indicate a
1000
problem, and is echoed to SYSLOG.
1001
[BA] Added all missing IBM/Hitachi Deskstar 180GXP models to knowndrives
1003
[PW] Added some missing IBM/Hitachi Deskstar 120GXP models to knowndrives
1005
[PW] Added IBM Travelstar 14GS to knowndrives table.
1006
[PW] Modified knowndrives table to match entire Hitachi Travelstar
1007
DK23BA and DK23EA series of drives (thanks to Norikatsu Shigemura
1008
for submitting the patch).
1009
[PW] Added some missing Fujitsu MPE series drives to knowndrives table.
1010
[PW] Added TOSHIBA MK4019GAX, TOSHIBA MK6409MAV, and QUANTUM
1011
FIREBALLlct15 20 to knowndrives table.
1012
[EM] Fixup example command output for FreeBSD
1013
[PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax 80 family to knowndrives table.
1014
[EM] Catch up FreeBSD code to switch PROJECTHOME to PACKAGE_HOMEPAGE
1016
[BA] smartd: now watches stdout/stderr when trying to run mail, mailx
1017
or mail warning script, and reports any output to SYSLOG. This
1018
gives a clearer error message if something is wrong.
1019
[BA] smartd: Solaris init script modified to accomodate grep that
1020
lacks '-q' quiet option. Also check for running process to kill
1022
[PW] Added some missing Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 and 7200.7 Plus drives
1023
to knowndrives table.
1024
[PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 60 family and Seagate U Series 5 20413
1025
to knowndrives table.
1026
[BA] smartd: under Solaris, made default mailer be 'mailx' not
1027
'mail', since Solaris 'mail' does not accept a '-s' argument.
1028
A workaround for Solaris users of earlier versions is to
1029
have '-M exec /bin/mailx' in their smartd.conf config file.
1030
[DG] some SCSI controllers don't like odd length transfers so make
1031
sure LOG SENSE transfers are rounded up to an even number when
1032
and odd length is reported (i.e. there is a double fetch, the
1033
first to find the length, the second gets the data)
1034
[BA] smartd man pages: under Solaris, correct section numbers in the
1036
[KS/BA] smartd man page: describe how to set Solaris syslog.conf
1037
file to catch all messages. Give correct Solaris SYSLOG default
1038
path /var/adm/messages in man pages.
1039
[BA] smartd: incorporated Debian startup script submitted by user.
1040
[BA] smartctl: modified printing of self-test log entry number. Seagate
1041
firmware can leave 'holes' in the self-test log while a test is
1042
actually running. We now print entry numbers consistently in this
1043
case, not assuming that entries are contiguous.
1044
[PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALL CX10.2A and Western Digital Caviar AC23200L
1045
to knowndrives table.
1046
[PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALLlct20 20 to knowndrives table.
1047
[PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus D740X family to knowndrives table.
1048
[PW] Added IBM Travelstar 32GH, 30GT, and 20GN family to knowndrives
1050
[BA] Slackware init script modified to search for /etc/slackware-version
1051
rather than /etc/slackware-release.
1052
[PW] Added Seagate Barracuda ATA II family and TOSHIBA MK4019GAXB to
1054
[GG] explain howto use autoreconf in autogen.sh
1055
[KS] Makefile.am/configure.in: changed manual page sections for
1057
[BA] smartd: reduced number of scheduled self-test messages if
1058
test already run in current hour.
1059
[PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 8 family to knowndrives table.
1060
[BA] linux: check for linux/hdreg.h. If it's there, use it. If
1061
not, provide the necessary definitions ourselves.
1062
[PW] Removed warning for IBM Deskstar 40GV & 75GXP series drives
1063
with TXAOA5AA firmware
1064
[PW] Added IBM Travelstar 25GS, 18GT, and 12GN family to knowndrives
1066
[PW] Added IBM/Hitachi Travelstar 60GH & 40GN family to knowndrives
1068
[BA] smartd: made '-s' Directive more efficient. Now store
1069
compiled regex, and re-use. If device lacks certain self-test
1070
capabilities, track it and don't try again.
1071
[BA] smartd: made memory allocation for device lists completely
1072
dynamic (eliminating compile-time maximum length constants).
1073
[PW] Removed warning for SAMSUNG SP0802N with TK100-23 firmware
1074
[PW] Added Seagate Barracuda ATA IV family to knowndrives table.
1075
[BA] smartd: reduce per-device memory footprint by making
1076
mail-warning info dynamically allocated. Also remove
1077
potential memory leak if use has -m Directive twice and
1078
keeps reloading the config file (highly unlikely this would
1080
[DG] smartd: added SCSI scheduled self-tests (Background
1082
[BA] smartd: can now run scheduled offline immediate and
1083
self-tests. See man page and -s Directive for details.
1084
[GG] don't include manpages in make-dist-tarball.
1085
[BA] smartctl: on-line examples given with -h are now correct
1086
for solaris and linux, but wrong for freebsd. Ed?
1087
[BA] smartd: man page now explains device scanning for solaris as
1088
well as linux and freebsd.
1089
[BA] smartd/smartctl: man pages now report correct CVS tag release
1090
date, and executables '-V' options reports more build info.
1092
* Sat Nov 29 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1093
[BA] Improved user messages that appear from 'make install'
1094
[PW] Removed warning for SAMSUNG SP1213N with firmware TL100-23
1095
[BA] incorporated SuSE init script from user.
1096
[DG] if SCSI device is read only, then open it read only.
1097
[BA] when compiled on non-supported system (NOT linux, freebsd or solaris) then
1098
the run-time error messages now clearly say 'your system is not supported'
1099
and give clear directions.
1100
[BA] ./configure script now works correctly on SuSE linux boxes
1101
[BA] minor improvements to man pages
1102
[BA] simplified detection of packet (ATAPI, CD) devices.
1103
[BA] init script (redhat, mandrake, yellowdog) now uses correct
1104
strings for translation and is slightly more standard.
1105
[DG] smartctl: output scsi Seagate vendor pages for disks (not tapes)
1106
* Wed Nov 19 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1107
[DG] smartd/smartctl: changed scsiClearControlGLTSD() to
1108
scsiSetControlGLTSD() with an 'enabled' argument so '-S on'
1109
and '-S off' work for SCSI devices (if changing GLTSD supported).
1110
[BA] smartd/smartctl: wired in scsiClearControlGLTSD(). Could still
1111
use a corresponding Set function. Left stubs for this purpose.
1112
[DG] scsicmds: added scsiClearControlGLTSD() [still to be wired in]
1113
[BA] smartctl: make SCSI -T options behave the same way as the
1115
[DG] smartctl: output scsi transport protocol if available
1116
[DG] scsi: stop device scan in smartd and smartctl if badly formed
1117
mode response [heuristic to filter out USB devices before we
1118
(potentially) lock them up].
1119
[BA] smartd: deviceclose()->CloseDevice(). Got rid of SCSIDEVELOPMENT
1120
macro-enabled code. Added -W to list of gcc specific options to
1121
always enable. Made code clean for -W warnings.
1122
[PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax VL 30 family to knowndrives table.
1123
[DG] scsi: add warning (when '-l error' active) if Control mode page
1124
GLTSD bit is set (global disable of saving log counters)
1125
[DG] scsi: remember mode sense cmd length. Output trip temperature
1126
from IE lpage (IBM extension) when unavailable from temp lpage.
1127
[BA] smartd: for both SCSI and ATA now warns user if either
1128
the number of self-test errors OR timestamp of most
1129
recent self-test error have increased.
1130
[DG] smartctl: output Seagate scsi Cache and Factory log pages (if
1131
available) when vendor attributes chosen
1132
[DG] smartd: add scsiCountFailedSelfTests() function.
1133
[DG] Do more sanity checking of scsi log page responses.
1134
[BA] smartd: now warns user if number of self-test errors has
1135
increased for SCSI devices.
1136
[BA] smartd: warn user if number of ATA self-test errors increases
1137
(as before) OR if hour time stamp of most recent self-test
1139
[DG] More checks for well formed mode page responses. This has the side
1140
effect of stopping scans on bad SCSI implementations (e.g. some
1141
USB disks) prior to sending commands (typically log sense) that
1143
[PW] Added Western Digital Caviar family and Caviar SE family to
1145
[BA] smartd: added -l daemon (which is the default value if -l
1147
[PW] Added Seagate Barracuda ATA V family to knowndrives table.
1148
[BA] smartd: added additional command line argument -l FACILITY
1149
or --logfacility FACILITY. This can be used to redirect
1150
messages from smartd to a different file than the one used
1151
by other system daemons.
1152
[PW] Added Seagate Barracuda 7200.7, Western Digital Protege WD400EB,
1153
and Western Digital Caviar AC38400 to knowndrives table.
1154
[BA] smartd: scanning should now also work correctly for
1155
devfs WITHOUT traditional links /dev/hd[a-t] or /dev/sd[a-z].
1156
[PW] Added Maxtor 4W040H3, Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 Plus,
1157
IBM Deskstar 120GXP (40GB), Seagate U Series 20410,
1158
Fujitsu MHM2100AT, MHL2300AT, MHM2150AT, and IBM-DARA-212000
1159
to knowndrives table.
1160
[PW] Added remaining Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 9 models to knowndrives
1162
[EM] smartd: If no matches found, then return 0, rather than an error
1163
indication, as it just means no devices of the given type exist.
1164
Adjust FreeBSD scan code to mirror Linux version.
1165
[BA] smartd: made device scan code simpler and more robust. If
1166
too many devices detected, warn user but scan as many
1167
as possible. If error in scanning, warn user but don't
1169
[EM] smartd: To keep as consistent as possible, migrate FreeBSD
1170
devicescan code to also use glob(3). Also verified clean
1171
compile on a 4.7 FreeBSD system.
1172
[BA] smartd: Modified device scan code to use glob(3). Previously
1173
it appeared to have trouble when scanning devices on an XFS
1174
file system, and used non-public interface to directory
1175
entries. Problems were also reported when /dev/ was on an
1176
ext2/3 file system, but there was a JFS partition on the same
1178
[BA] Clearer error messages when device scanning finds no suitable
1180
[EM] FreeBSD: Fixup code to allow for proper compilation under
1183
* Fri Oct 31 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1184
- [BA] smartd: didn't close file descriptors of ATA packet devices
1185
that are scanned. Fixed.
1186
- [BA] Added reload/report targets to the smartmontools init script.
1187
reload: reloads config file
1188
report: send SIGUSR1 to check devices now
1190
* Mon Oct 27 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1191
- [EM] Fix compile issues for FreeBSD < 5-CURRENT.
1192
- [PW] Added Fujitsu MHM2200AT to knowndrives table.
1193
- [BA] To help catch bugs, clear ATA error structures before all
1194
ioctl calls. Disable code that attempted to time-out on SCSI
1195
devices when they hung (doesn't work).
1196
- [BA] Documented STATUS/ERROR flags added by [PW] below.
1197
- [BA] Improved algorithm to recognize ATA packet devices. Should
1198
no longer generate SYSLOG kernel noise when user tries either
1199
smartd or smartctl on packet device (CD-ROM or DVD). Clearer
1200
warning messages from smartd when scanning ATA packet device.
1201
- [PW] Added TOSHIBA MK4025GAS to knowndrives table.
1202
- [PW] Added a textual interpretation of the status and error registers
1203
in the SMART error log (ATA). The interpretation is
1204
command-dependent and currently only eight commands are supported
1205
(those which produced errors in the error logs that I happen to
1207
- [BA] added memory allocation tracking to solaris code.
1208
Fixed solaris signal handling (reset handler to default
1209
after first call to handler) by using sigset. Added
1210
HAVE_SIGSET to configure.in
1211
- [CD] solaris port: added SCSI functionality to solaris
1213
- [BA] smartd: attempt to address bug report about smartd
1214
hanging on USB devices when scanning:
1215
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=107615
1216
Set a timeout of SCSITIMEOUT (nominally 7 seconds) before
1218
- [EM] smartd: DEVICESCAN will follow links in a devfs filesystem and
1219
make sure the end point is a disc. Update documentation, added
1220
note about FreeBSD scanning
1221
- [BA] smartd: DEVICESCAN also looks for block devices in
1222
/dev. Updated documentation. Now scans for up to
1223
20 ATA devices /dev/hda-t rather than previous 12
1225
- [EM] smartd: mirror the FreeBSD DEVICESCAN logic for Linux,
1226
so that smartd now scans only devices found in /dev/. Also,
1227
make utility memory functions take a line number and file so
1228
that we report errors with the correct location.
1229
- [GG] add a note about Debian bug #208964 to WARNINGS.
1230
- [BA] smartctl: -T verypermissive option broken. Use
1231
-T verpermissive until the next release, please.
1232
- [BA] Syntax mods so that code also compiles on Solaris using
1233
Sun Workshop compiler. Need -xmemalign 1i -xCC flags
1236
* Wed Oct 15 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1237
[DK] Changed configure.in so -Wall is only included if gcc
1238
is used (this is a gcc specific flag) and -fsignedchar
1239
is not used at all (this is a gcc specific compiler
1241
[BA] Modifications so that code now compiles under solaris. Now
1242
all that's needed (:-) is to fill in os_solaris.[hc]. Added
1243
os_generic.[hc] as guide to future ports. Fixed -D option
1244
of smartd (no file name). Modified -h opt of smartd/smartctl
1245
to work properly with solaris getopt().
1246
[EM] Update MAN pages with notes that 3ware drives are NOT supported
1247
under FreeBSD. Cleanup FreeBSD warning message handling.
1248
[EM] FreeBSD only: Fix first user found bug....I guess I was making
1249
the wrong assumption on how to convert ATA devnames to
1250
channel/unit numbers.
1251
[EM] Allow for option --enable-sample to append '.sample' to installed
1252
smartd.conf and rc script files. Also, let rc script shell setting
1253
be determined by configure
1254
[EM] Minor autoconf update to include -lcam for FreeBSD
1255
[EM] Add conditional logic to allow FreeBSD to compile pre-ATAng.
1257
Add some documentation to INSTALL for FreeBSD.
1258
[EM] Implement SCSI CAM support for FreeBSD. NOTE: I am not an expert
1259
in the use of CAM. It seems to work for me, but I may be doing
1260
something horribly wrong, so please exercise caution.
1261
[EM] Switch over to using 'atexit' rather than 'on_exit' routine. This also
1262
meant we needed to save the exit status elsewhere so our 'Goodbye'
1263
routine could examine it.
1264
[EM] Move the DEVICESCAN code to os specific files. Also moved some of the
1265
smartd Memory functions to utility.c to make available to smartctl.
1266
[EM] Code janitor work on os_freebsd.c.
1267
[EM] Added os_freebsd.[hc] code. Additional code janitor
1269
[BA] Code janitor working, moving OS dependent code into
1271
[GG] conditionally compile os_{freebsd,linux}.o depending on
1273
[PW] Print estimated completion time for tests
1274
[BA] Added -F samsung2 flag to correct firmware byte swap.
1275
All samsung drives with *-23 firmware revision string.
1277
* Sun Oct 05 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1278
- [GG] Fixed broken Makefile.am (zero length smartd.conf.5
1280
- [FM] Improved Slackware init script added to /etc/smartd.initd
1282
* Fri Oct 03 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1283
- [BA] smartctl: added '-T verypermissive' option which is
1284
equivalent to giving '-T permissive' many times.
1285
- [BA] Try harder to identify from IDENTIFY DEVICE structure
1286
if SMART supported/enabled. smartd now does a more
1287
thorough job of trying to assess this before sending
1288
a SMART status command to find out for sure.
1289
- [BA] smartctl: it's now possible to override the program's
1290
guess of the device type (ATA or SCSI) with -d option.
1291
- [BA] try hard to avoid sending IDENTIFY DEVICE to packet
1292
devices (CDROMS). They can't do SMART, and this generates
1293
annoying syslog messages. At the same time, identify type
1295
- [BA] smartctl: Can now use permissive option more
1296
than once, to control how far to go before giving up.
1297
- [BA] smartd: if user asked to monitor either error or self-test
1298
logs (-l error or -l selftest) WITHOUT monitoring any of the
1299
Attribute values, code will SEGV. For 5.1-18 and earlier,
1300
a good workaround is to enable Auto offline (-o on).
1301
- [BA] smartctl: If enable auto offline command given, update auto
1302
offline status before printing capabilities.
1303
- [GG] Make autotools build the default, remove autotools.diff
1304
- [GG] Add auto{conf,make} support, not enabled by default.
1305
- [BA] Eliminated #include <linux/hdreg.h> from code. This
1306
should simplify porting to solaris, FreeBSD, etc. The
1307
only linux-specific code is now isolated to three routines,
1308
one for SCSI, one for Escalade, one for ATA.
1310
* Fri Aug 22 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1311
- [BA] smartd: fixed serious bug - Attributes not monitored unless
1312
user told smartd to ignore at least one of them!
1314
* Tue Aug 19 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1315
- [BA] Default runlevels for smartd changed from 3 and 5 to
1317
- [BA] Removed as much dynamic memory allocation as possible from
1318
configuration file parsing. Reloading config file, even in
1319
presence of syntax errors etc. should not cause memory leaks.
1320
- [PW] It is no longer permissible for the integer part (if any) of
1321
arguments to --report and --device to be followed by non-digits.
1322
For example, the "foo" in --report=ioctl,2foo was previously
1323
ignored, but now causes an error.
1324
- [BA] smartd: added -q/--quit command line option to specify
1325
under what circumstances smartd should exit. The old
1326
-c/--checkonce option is now obsoleted by this more
1327
general-purpose option.
1328
- [BA] smartd now responds to a HUP signal by re-reading its
1329
configuration file /etc/smartd.conf. If there are
1330
errors in this file, then the configuration file is
1331
ignored and smartd continues to monitor the devices that
1332
it was monitoring prior to receiving the HUP signal.
1333
- [BA] Now correctly get SMART status from disks behind 3ware
1334
controllers, thanks to Adam Radford. Need 3w-xxxx driver
1335
version 1.02.00.037 or later. Previously the smartmontools
1336
SMART status always returned "OK" for 3ware controllers.
1337
- [BA] Additional work on dynamic memory allocation/deallocation.
1338
This should have no effect on smartctl, but clears that way
1339
for smartd to dynamically add and remove entries. It should
1340
also now be easier to modify smartd to re-read its config
1341
file on HUP (which is easy) without leaking memory (which is
1342
harder). The philosophy is that memory for data structures in
1343
smartd is now allocated only on demand, the first time it
1345
- [BA] smartd: finished cleanup. Now use create/rm functions for
1346
cfgentries and dynamic memory allocation almost everywhere.
1347
Philosophy: aggresively try and provoke SEGV to help find
1349
- [BA] Added SAMSUNG SV0412H to knowndrives table.
1350
- [BA] smartd: if DEVICESCAN used then knowndrives table might not set
1351
the -v attributes correctly -- may have been the same for all
1352
the drives. Cleaned up some data structures and memory
1353
allocation to try and ensure segvs if such problems are
1355
- [BA] Now allow -S on and -o on for the 3ware device type. For these
1356
commands to be passed through, the stock 3ware 3w-xxxx driver
1357
must be patched (8 lines). I'll post a patch on the smartmontools
1358
home page after it's been tested by a few other people and 3ware
1359
have had a chance to look it over.
1361
* Wed Aug 06 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1362
- [BA] smartd - can now monitor ATA drives behind 3ware controllers.
1363
- [BA] smartd - changed some FATAL out of memory error messages from
1364
syslog level LOG_INFO to LOG_CRIT.
1365
- [BA] smartctl - added code to look at ATA drives behind 3ware RAID
1366
controllers using the 3w-xxxx driver. Note that for technical
1367
reasons related to the 3w-xxxx driver, the "Enable Autosave",
1368
"Enable Automatic Offline" commands are not implemented.
1369
I will add this to smartd shortly.
1370
- [BA] smartd - modified sleep loop, so that smartd no longer comes
1371
on the run queue every second. Instead, unless interrupted,
1372
it sleeps until the next polling time, when it wakes up. Now
1373
smartd also tries to wake up at exactly the right
1374
intervals (nominally 30 min) even if the user has been sending
1376
- [GG] add Fujitsu MHN2300AT to vendoropts_9_seconds.
1377
- [EB] Fujitsu change in knowndrives ... match the whole MPD and
1378
MPE series for vendoropts_9_seconds.
1379
- [BA] smartd bug, might cause segv if a device can not be opened. Was
1380
due to missing comma in char* list. Consequence is that email
1381
failure messages might have had the wrong Subject: heading for
1382
errorcount, FAILEDhealthcheck, FAILEDreadsmartdata, FAILEDreadsmarterrorlog,
1383
FAILEDreadsmartsefltestlog, FAILEDopendevice were all displaced by
1384
one. And FAILEDopendevice might have caused a segv if -m was being
1385
used as a smartd Directive.
1387
* Wed Jul 23 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1388
- [BA] Cleaned up smartmontools.spec so that upgrading, removing
1389
and other such operations correctly preserve running behavior
1390
and booting behavior of smartd.
1391
- [BA] Improved formatting of ATA Error Log printout, and added
1392
listing of names of commands that caused the error. Added
1393
obsolete ATA-4 SMART feature commands to table, along with
1394
obsolete SFF-8035i SMART feature command.
1395
- [PW] Added atacmdnames.[hc], which turn command register &
1396
feature register pairs into ATA command names.
1397
- [BA] Added conveyance self-test. Some code added for selective
1398
self-tests, but #ifdefed out.
1399
- [BA] Modified smartd exit status and log levels. If smartd is
1400
"cleanly" terminated, for example with SIGTERM, then its
1401
exit messages are now logged at LOG_INFO not LOG_CRIT
1402
- [BA] Added Attribute IDs (Fujitsu) 0xCA - 0xCE. This is decimal
1403
202-206. Added -v switches for interpretation of Attributes
1405
- [BA] Made smartmontools work with any endian order machine for:
1406
- SMART selftest log
1407
- SMART ATA error log
1408
- SMART Attributes values
1409
- SMART Attributes thesholds
1410
- IDENTIFY DEVICE information
1412
Smartmontools is now free of endian bias and works correctly
1413
on both little- and big-endian hardware. This has been tested by
1414
three independent PPC users on a variety of ATA and SCSI hardware.
1415
- [DG] Check that certain SCSI command responses are well formed. If
1416
IEC mode page response is not well formed exit smartctl. This
1417
is to protect aacraid. smartd should ignore a aacraid device.
1419
* Mon Jun 16 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1420
- [BA] smartctl: added column to -A output to show if Attributes are
1421
updated only during off-line testing or also during normal
1424
* Thu Jun 10 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1425
- [BA] smartd: attempt to enable/disable automatic offline testing even
1426
if the disk appears not to support it. Now the same logic
1428
- [BA] Added definition of Attribute 201, soft read error rate.
1429
- [BA] Added IBM/Hitachi IC35L120AVV207-1 (GXP-180) and corresponding
1430
8MB Cache GXP-120 to drive database.
1431
- [BA] smartd: if DEVICESCAN Directive used in smartd.conf, and
1432
-I, -R or -r Directives used in conjunction with this, got
1433
segv errors. Fixed by correcting memory allocation calls.
1434
- [BA] smartd: enable automatic offline testing was broken due
1435
to cut-and-paste error that disabled it instead of
1436
enabling it. Thanks to Maciej W. Rozycki for pointing
1437
out the problem and solution.
1438
- [BA] Fixed "spelling" of some Attribute names to replace spaces
1439
in names by underscores. (Fixed field width easier for awk
1441
- [BA] Added mods submitted by Guilhem Frezou to support Attribute 193
1442
being load/unload cycles. Add -v 193,loadunload option, useful
1443
for Hitachi drive DK23EA-30, and add this drive to knowndrive.c
1444
Add meaning of attribute 250 : Read error retry rate
1445
- [BA] Added another entry for Samsung drives to knowndrive table.
1446
- [DG] Refine SCSI log sense command to do a double fetch in most cases
1447
(but not for the TapeAlert log page). Fix TapeAlert and Self Test
1448
log pgae response truncation.
1449
- [PW] Added 'removable' argument to -d Directive for smartd. This indicates
1450
that smartd should continue (rather than exit) if the device does not
1451
appear to be present.
1452
- [BA] Modified smartmontools.spec [Man pages location] and
1453
smartd.initd [Extra space kills chkconfig!] for Redhat 6.x
1454
compatibility (thanks to Gerald Schnabel).
1456
* Wed May 7 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1457
- [EB] Add another Fujitsu disk to knowndrives.c
1458
- [GG] match for scsi/ and ide/ in case of devfs to exclude false postives
1459
- [BA] If SCSI device listed in /etc/smartd.conf fails to open or do
1460
SMART stuff correctly, or not enough space
1461
to list all SCSI devices, fail with error unless
1462
-DSCSIDEVELOPMENT set during compile-time.
1463
- [BA] Added automatic recognition of /dev/i* (example: /dev/ide/...)
1465
- [DG] Add "Device type: [disk | tape | medium changer | ...]" line to
1466
smartctl -i output for SCSI devices.
1467
- [PW] Fixed bug in smartd where test email would be sent regularly (for
1468
example, daily if the user had specified -M daily) instead of just
1470
- [KM] More TapeAlert work. Added translations for media changer
1471
alerts. TapeAlert support reported according to the log page
1472
presence. ModeSense not attempted for non-ready tapes (all
1473
drives do not support this after all). Get peripheral type from
1474
Inquiry even if drive info is not printed. Add QUIETON()
1475
QUIETOFF() to TapeAlert log check.
1476
- [BA] Stupid bug in atacmds.c minor_str[] affected ataVersionInfo().
1477
Two missing commas meant that minor_str[] had two few elements,
1478
leading to output like this:
1479
Device Model: Maxtor 6Y120L0
1480
Serial Number: Y40BF74E
1481
Firmware Version: YAR41VW0
1482
Device is: Not in smartctl database [for details use: -P showall]
1484
ATA Standard is: 9,minutes
1486
Missing commas inserted.
1487
- [BA] Fixed smartd bug. On device registration, if ATA device did
1488
not support SMART error or self-test logs but user had asked to
1489
monitor them, an attempt would be made to read them anyway,
1490
possibly generating "Drive Seek" errors. We now check that
1491
the self-test and error logs are supported before trying to
1492
access them the first time.
1493
- [GG/BA] Fixed bug where if SMART ATA error log not supported,
1494
command was tried anyway. Changed some error printing to use
1496
- [GG] Makefile modifications to ease packaging
1497
- [DG] Did work for TapeAlerts (SCSI). Now can detect /dev/nst0 as a
1498
SCSI device. Also open SCSI devices O_NONBLOCK so they don't
1499
hang on open awaiting media. The ATA side should worry about
1500
this also: during a DEVICESCAN a cd/dvd device without media
1501
will hang. Added some TapeAlert code suggested by Kai Makisara.
1503
* Mon Apr 21 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1504
- [PW] Extended the -F option/Directive to potentially fix other firmware
1505
bugs in addition to the Samsung byte-order bug. Long option name is
1506
now --firmwarebug and the option/Directive accepts an argument
1507
indicating the type of firmware bug to fix.
1508
- [BA] Fixed a bug that prevented the enable automatic off-line
1509
test feature from enabling. It also prevented the enable Attribute
1510
autosave from working. See CVS entry for additional details.
1511
- [PW] Modified the -r/--report option (smartctl and smartd) to allow the
1512
user to specify the debug level as a positive integer.
1513
- [BA] Added --log directory option to smartctl. If the disk
1514
supports the general-purpose logging feature set (ATA-6/7)
1515
then this option enables the Log Directory to be printed.
1516
This Log Directory shows which device logs are available, and
1517
their lengths in sectors.
1518
- [PW] Added -P/--presets option to smartctl and -P Directive to smartd.
1519
- [GG] Introduce different exit codes indicating the type of problem
1520
encountered for smartd.
1521
- [DG] Add non-medium error count to '-l error' and extended self test
1522
duration to '-l selftest'. Get scsi IEs and temperature changes
1523
working in smartd. Step over various scsi disk problems rather
1524
than abort smartd startup.
1525
- [DG] Support -l error for SCSI disks (and tapes). Output error counter
1527
- [BA] Added -F/--fixbyteorder option to smartctl. This allows us to read
1528
SMART data from some disks that have byte-reversed two- and four-
1529
byte quantities in their SMART data structures.
1530
- [BA] Fixed serious bug: the -v options in smartd.conf were all put
1531
together and used together, not drive-by-drive.
1532
- [PW] Added knowndrives.h and knowndrives.c. The knowndrives array
1533
supersedes the drivewarnings array.
1534
- [GG] add {-p,--pidfile} option to smartd to write a PID file on
1535
startup. Update the manpage accordingly.
1536
- [DG] Fix scsi smartd problem detecting SMART support. More cleaning
1537
and fix (and rename) scsiTestUnitReady(). More scsi renaming.
1538
- [BA] Fixed smartd so that if a disk that is explictily listed is not
1539
found, then smartd will exit with nonzero status BEFORE forking.
1540
If a disk can't be registered, this will also be detected before
1541
forking, so that init scripts can react correctly.
1542
- [BA] Replaced all linux-specific ioctl() calls in atacmds.c with
1543
a generic handler smartcommandhandler(). Now the only routine
1544
that needs to be implemented for a given OS is os_specific_handler().
1545
Also implemented the --report ataioctl. This provides
1546
two levels of reporting. Using the option once gives a summary
1547
report of device IOCTL transactions. Using the option twice give
1548
additional info (a printout of ALL device raw 512 byte SMART
1549
data structures). This is useful for debugging.
1550
- [DG] more scsi cleanup. Output scsi device serial number (VPD page
1551
0x80) if available as part of '-i'. Implement '-t offline' as
1552
default self test (only self test older disks support).
1553
- [BA] Changed crit to info in loglevel of smartd complaint to syslog
1554
if DEVICESCAN enabled and device not found.
1555
- [BA] Added -v 194,10xCelsius option/Directive. Raw Attribute number
1556
194 is ten times the disk temperature in Celsius.
1557
- [DG] scsicmds.[hc] + scsiprint.c: clean up indentation, remove tabs.
1558
Introduce new intermediate interface based on "struct scsi_cmnd_io"
1559
to isolate SCSI generic commands + responses from Linux details;
1560
should help port to FreeBSD of SCSI part of smartmontools.
1561
Make SCSI command builders more parametric.
1563
* Thu Mar 13 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1564
- [BA] smartctl: if HDIO_DRIVE_TASK ioctl() is not implemented (no
1565
kernel support) then try to assess drive health by examining
1566
Attribute values/thresholds directly.
1567
- [BA] smartd/smartctl: added -v 200,writeerrorcount option/Directive
1569
- [BA] smartd: Now send email if any of the SMART commands fails,
1570
or if open()ing the device fails. This is often noted
1571
as a common disk failure mode.
1572
- [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added -v N,raw8 -v N,raw16 and -v N,raw48
1573
Directives/Options for printing Raw Attributes in different
1575
- [BA] smartd: Added -r ID and -R ID for reporting/tracking Raw
1576
values of Attributes.
1577
- [BA] smartd/smartctl: Changed printing of spin-up-time attribute
1578
raw value to reflect current/average as per IBM standard.
1579
- [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added -v 9,seconds option for disks which
1580
use Attribute 9 for power-on lifetime in seconds.
1581
- [BA] smartctl: Added a warning message so that users of some IBM
1582
disks are warned to update their firmware. Note: we may want
1583
to add a command-line flag to disable the warning messages.
1584
I have done this in a general way, using regexp, so that we
1585
can add warnings about any type of disk that we wish..
1587
* Wed Feb 12 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1588
- [BA] smartd: Created a subdirectory examplescripts/ of source
1589
directory that contains executable scripts for the -M exec PATH
1590
Directive of smartd.
1591
- [BA] smartd: DEVICESCAN in /etc/smartd.conf
1592
can now be followed by all the same Directives as a regular
1593
device name like /dev/hda takes. This allows one to use
1595
DEVICESCAN -m root@example.com
1596
in the /etc/smartd.conf file.
1597
- [BA] smartd: Added -c (--checkonce) command-line option. This checks
1598
all devices once, then exits. The exit status can be
1599
used to learn if devices were detected, and if smartd is
1600
functioning correctly. This is primarily for Distribution
1602
- [BA] smartd: Implemented -M exec Directive for
1603
smartd.conf. This makes it possible to run an
1604
arbitrary script or mailing program with the
1606
- [PW] smartd: Modified -M Directive so that it can be given
1607
multiple times. Added -M exec Directive.
1609
* Tue Jan 21 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1610
- [BA] Fixed bug in smartctl pointed out by Pierre Gentile.
1611
-d scsi didn't work because tryata and tryscsi were
1612
reversed -- now works on /devfs SCSI devices.
1613
- [BA] Fixed bug in smartctl pointed out by Gregory Goddard
1614
<ggoddard@ufl.edu>. Manual says that bit 6 of return
1615
value turned on if errors found in smart error log. But
1616
this wasn't implemented.
1617
- [BA] Modified printing format for 9,minutes to read
1618
Xh+Ym not X h + Y m, so that fields are fixed width.
1619
- [BA] Added Attribute 240 "head flying hours"
1621
* Sun Jan 12 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1622
- [BA] As requested, local time/date now printed by smartctl -i
1624
* Thu Jan 9 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1625
- [PW] Added 'help' argument to -v for smartctl
1626
- [PW] Added -D, --showdirectives option to smartd
1628
* Sat Jan 4 2003 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1629
- [DG] add '-l selftest' capability for SCSI devices (update smartctl.8)
1630
- [BA] smartd,smartctl: added additional Attribute modification option
1631
-v 220,temp and -v 9,temp.
1632
- [PW] Renamed smartd option -X to -d
1633
- [PW] Changed smartd.conf Directives -- see man page
1634
- [BA/DG] Fixed uncommented comment in smartd.conf
1635
- [DG] Correct 'Recommended start stop count' for SCSI devices
1636
- [PW] Replaced smartd.conf directive -C with smartd option -i
1637
- [PW] Changed options for smartctl -- see man page.
1638
- [BA] Use strerror() to generate system call error messages.
1639
- [BA] smartd: fflush() all open streams before fork().
1640
- [BA] smartctl, smartd simplified internal handling of checksums
1641
for simpler porting and less code.
1643
* Sun Dec 8 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1644
- [PW] smartd --debugmode changed to --debug
1645
- [BA] smartd/smartctl added attribute 230 Head Amplitude from
1647
- [PW] Added list of proposed new options for smartctl to README.
1648
- [PW] smartd: ParseOpts() now uses getopt_long() if HAVE_GETOPT_LONG is
1649
defined and uses getopt() otherwise. This is controlled by CPPFLAGS in
1651
- [BA] smartd: Fixed a couple of error messages done with perror()
1652
to redirect them as needed.
1653
- [BA] smartctl: The -O option to enable an Immediate off-line test
1654
did not print out the correct time that the test would take to
1655
complete. This is because the test timer is volatile and not
1656
fixed. This has been fixed, and the smartctl.8 man page has been
1657
updated to explain how to track the Immediate offline test as it
1658
progresses, and to further emphasize the differences between the
1659
off-line immediate test and the self-tests.
1660
- [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added new attribute (200) Multi_Zone_Error_Rate
1661
- [BA] smartctl: modified so that arguments could have either a single -
1662
as in -ea or multiple ones as in -e -a. Improved warning message for
1663
device not opened, and fixed error in redirection of error output of
1664
HD identity command.
1665
- [PW] smartd: added support for long options. All short options are still
1666
supported; see manpage for available long options.
1667
- [BA] smartctl. When raw Attribute value was 2^31 or larger, did
1668
not print correctly.
1670
* Fri Nov 22 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1671
- Allen: smartd: added smartd.conf Directives -T and -s. The -T Directive
1672
enables/disables Automatic Offline Testing. The -s Directive
1673
enables/disables Attribute Autosave. Documentation and
1674
example configuration file updated to agree.
1675
- Allen: smartd: user can make smartd check the disks at any time
1676
(ie, interrupt sleep) by sending signal SIGUSR1 to smartd. This
1677
can be done for example with:
1679
where <pid> is the process ID number of smartd.
1680
- Bolso: scsi: don't trust the data we receive from the drive too
1681
much. It very well might have errors (like zero response length).
1682
Seen on Megaraid logical drive, and verified in the driver source.
1683
- Allen: smartd: added Directive -m for sending test email and
1684
for modifying email reminder behavior. Updated manual, and sample
1685
configuration file to illustrate & explain this.
1686
- Allen: smartd: increased size of a continued smartd.conf line to
1688
- Allen: Simplified Directive parsers and improved warning/error
1691
* Sun Nov 17 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1692
- Fixed bug in smartd where testunitready logic inverted
1693
prevented functioning on scsi devices.
1694
- Added testunitnotready to smartctl for symmetry with smartd.
1695
- Brabec: added Czech descriptions to .spec file
1696
- Brabec: corrected comment in smartd.conf example
1697
- Changed way that entries in the ATA error log are printed,
1698
to make it clearer which is the most recent error and
1699
which is the oldest one.
1700
- Changed Temperature_Centigrade to Temperature_Celsius.
1701
The term "Centigrade" ceased to exist in 1948. (c.f
1702
http://www.bartleby.com/64/C004/016.html).
1704
* Wed Nov 13 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1705
- smartd SCSI devices: can now send warning email message on failure
1706
- Added a new smartd configuration file Directive: -M ADDRESS.
1707
This sends a single warning email to ADDRESS for failures or
1708
errors detected with the -c, -L, -l, or -f Directives.
1710
* Mon Nov 11 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1711
- Modified perror() statements in atacmds.c so that printout for SMART
1712
commands errors is properly suppressed or queued depending upon users
1713
choices for error reporting modes.
1714
- Added Italian descriptions to smartmontools.spec file.
1715
- Started impementing send-mail-on-error for smartd; not yet enabled.
1717
* Sun Nov 10 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1718
- Added -P (Permissive) Directive to smartd.conf file to allow SMART monitoring of
1719
pre-ATA-3 Rev 4 disks that have SMART but do not have a SMART capability bit.
1721
* Thu Nov 7 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1722
- Added a Man section 5 page for smartd.conf
1723
- Changed Makefile so that the -V option does not reflect file state
1725
- modified .spec file so that locale information now contains
1726
character set definition. Changed pt_BR to pt since we do not use any
1727
aspect other than language. See man setlocale.
1728
- smartctl: added new options -W, -U, and -P to control if and how the
1729
smartctl exits if an error is detected in either a SMART data
1730
structure checksum, or a SMART command returns an error.
1731
- modified manual page to break options into slightly more logical
1733
- reformatted 'usage' message order to agree with man page ordering
1735
* Mon Nov 4 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1736
- smartctl: added new options -n and -N to force device to be ATA or SCSI
1737
- smartctl: no longer dies silently if device path does not start/dev/X
1738
- smartctl: now handles arbitrary device paths
1739
- Added additional macros for manual and sbin paths in this SPEC file.
1740
- Modified Makefile to install /etc/smartd.conf, but without overwriting existing config file
1741
- Modified this specfile to do the same, and to not remove any files that it did not install
1743
* Thu Oct 30 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1744
- Fixed typesetting error in man page smartd.8
1745
- Removed redundant variable (harmless) from smartd.c
1747
* Wed Oct 29 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1748
- Added a new directive for the configuration file. If the word
1749
DEVICESCAN appears before any non-commented material in the
1750
configuration file, then the confi file will be ignored and the
1751
devices wil be scanned.
1752
- Note: it has now been confirmed that the code modifications between
1753
5.0.23 and 5.0.24 have eliminated the GCC 3.2 problems. Note that
1754
there is a GCC bug howerver, see #8404 at
1755
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8404
1756
- Added new Directive for Configuration file:
1757
-C <N> This sets the time in between disk checks to be <N>
1758
seconds apart. Note that although you can give
1759
this Directive multiple times on different lines of
1760
the configuration file, only the final value that
1761
is given has an effect, and applies to all the
1762
disks. The default value of <N> is 1800 sec, and
1763
the minimum allowed value is ten seconds.
1764
- Problem wasn't the print format. F.L.W. Meunier <0@pervalidus.net>
1765
sent me a gcc 3.2 build and I ran it under a debugger. The
1766
problem seems to be with passing the very large (2x512+4) byte
1767
data structures as arguments. I never liked this anyway; it was
1768
inherited from smartsuite. So I've changed all the heavyweight
1769
functions (ATA ones, anyone) to just passing pointers, not hideous
1770
kB size structures on the stack. Hopefully this will now build OK
1771
under gcc 3.2 with any sensible compilation options.
1772
- Because of reported problems with GCC 3.2 compile, I have gone
1773
thorough the code and explicitly changed all print format
1774
parameters to correspond EXACTLY to int unless they have to be
1775
promoted to long longs. To quote from the glibc bible: [From
1776
GLIBC Manual: Since the prototype doesn't specify types for
1777
optional arguments, in a call to a variadic function the default
1778
argument promotions are performed on the optional argument
1779
values. This means the objects of type char or short int (whether
1780
signed or not) are promoted to either int or unsigned int, as
1782
- smartd, smartctl now warn if they find an attribute whose ID
1783
number does not match between Data and Threshold structures.
1784
- Fixed nasty bug which led to wrong number of arguments for a
1785
varargs statement, with attendent stack corruption. Sheesh!
1786
Have added script to CVS attic to help find such nasties in the
1789
* Tue Oct 29 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1790
- Eliminated some global variables out of header files and other
1791
minor cleanup of smartd.
1792
- Did some revision of the man page for smartd and made the usage
1793
messages for Directives consistent.
1794
- smartd: prints warning message when it gets SIGHUP, saying that it is
1795
NOT re-reading the config file.
1796
- smartctl: updated man page to say self-test commands -O,x,X,s,S,A
1797
appear to be supported in the code. [I can't test these, can anyone
1799
- smartctl: smartctl would previously print the LBA of a self-test
1800
if it completed, and the LBA was not 0 or 0xff...f However
1801
according to the specs this is not correct. According to the
1802
specs, if the self-test completed without error then LBA is
1803
undefined. This version fixes that. LBA value only printed if
1804
self-test encountered an error.
1805
- smartd has changed significantly. This is the first CVS checkin of
1806
code that extends the options available for smartd. The following
1807
options can be placed into the /etc/smartd.conf file, and control the
1809
- Configuration file Directives (following device name):
1810
-A Device is an ATA device
1811
-S Device is a SCSI device
1812
-c Monitor SMART Health Status
1813
-l Monitor SMART Error Log for changes
1814
-L Monitor SMART Self-Test Log for new errors
1815
-f Monitor for failure of any 'Usage' Attributes
1816
-p Report changes in 'Prefailure' Attributes
1817
-u Report changes in 'Usage' Attributes
1818
-t Equivalent to -p and -u Directives
1819
-a Equivalent to -c -l -L -f -t Directives
1820
-i ID Ignore Attribute ID for -f Directive
1821
-I ID Ignore Attribute ID for -p, -u or -t Directive
1822
# Comment: text after a hash sign is ignored
1823
\ Line continuation character
1824
- cleaned up functions used for printing CVS IDs. Now use string
1825
library, as it should be.
1826
- modified length of device name string in smartd internal structure
1827
to accomodate max length device name strings
1828
- removed un-implemented (-e = Email notification) option from
1829
command line arg list. We'll put it back on when implemeneted.
1830
- smartd now logs serious (fatal) conditions in its operation at
1831
loglevel LOG_CRIT rather than LOG_INFO before exiting with error.
1832
- smartd used to open a file descriptor for each SMART enabled
1833
- device, and then keep it open the entire time smartd was running.
1834
This meant that some commands, like IOREADBLKPART did not work,
1835
since the fd to the device was open. smartd now opens the device
1836
when it needs to read values, then closes it. Also, if one time
1837
around it can't open the device, it simply prints a warning
1838
message but does not give up. Have eliminated the .fd field from
1839
data structures -- no longer gets used.
1840
- smartd now opens SCSI devices as well using O_RDONLY rather than
1841
O_RDWR. If someone can no longer monitor a SCSI device that used
1842
to be readable, this may well be the reason why.
1843
- smartd never checked if the number of ata or scsi devices detected
1844
was greater than the max number it could monitor. Now it does.
1846
* Fri Oct 25 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1847
- changes to the Makefile and spec file so that if there are ungzipped manual
1848
pages in place these will be removed so that the new gzipped man pages are
1850
- smartd on startup now looks in the configuration file /etc/smartd.conf for
1851
a list of devices which to include in its monitoring list. See man page
1852
(man smartd) for syntax. If not found, try all ata and ide devices.
1853
- smartd: close file descriptors of SCSI device if not SMART capable
1854
Closes ALL file descriptors after forking to daemon.
1855
- added new temperature attribute (231, temperature)
1856
- smartd: now open ATA disks using O_RDONLY
1858
* Thu Oct 24 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1859
- smartd now prints the name of a failed or changed attribute into logfile,
1861
- Changed name of -p (print version) option to -V
1862
- Minor change in philosophy: if a SMART command fails or the device
1863
appears incapable of a SMART command that the user has asked for,
1864
complain by printing an error message, but go ahead and try
1865
anyway. Since unimplemented SMART commands should just return an
1866
error but not cause disk problems, this should't cause any
1868
- Added two new flags: q and Q. q is quiet mode - only print: For
1869
the -l option, errors recorded in the SMART error log; For the -L
1870
option, errors recorded in the device self-test log; For the -c
1871
SMART "disk failing" status or device attributes (pre-failure or
1872
usage) which failed either now or in the past; For the -v option
1873
device attributes (pre-failure or usage) which failed either now
1874
or in the past. Q is Very Quiet mode: Print no ouput. The only
1875
way to learn about what was found is to use the exit status of
1877
- smartctl now returns sensible values (bitmask). See smartctl.h
1878
for the values, and the man page for documentation.
1879
- The SMART status check now uses the correct ATA call. If failure
1880
is detected we search through attributes to list the failed ones.
1881
If the SMART status check shows GOOD, we then look to see if their
1882
are any usage attributes or prefail attributes have failed at any
1883
time. If so we print them.
1884
- Modified function that prints vendor attributes to say if the
1885
attribute has currently failed or has ever failed.
1886
- -p option now prints out license info and CVS strings for all
1887
modules in the code, nicely formatted.
1888
- Previous versions of this code (and Smartsuite) only generate
1889
SMART failure errors if the value of an attribute is below the
1890
threshold and the prefailure bit is set. However the ATA Spec
1891
(ATA4 <=Rev 4) says that it is a SMART failure if the value of an
1892
attribute is LESS THAN OR EQUAL to the threshold and the
1893
prefailure bit is set. This is now fixed in both smartctl and
1894
smartd. Note that this is a troubled subject -- the original
1895
SFF 8035i specification defining SMART was inconsistent about
1896
this. One section says that Attribute==Threshold is pass,
1897
and another section says it is fail. However the ATA specs are
1898
consistent and say Attribute==Threshold is a fail.
1899
- smartd did not print the correct value of any failing SMART attribute. It
1900
printed the index in the attribute table, not the attribute
1902
- when starting self-tests in captive mode ioctl returns EIO because
1903
the drive has been busied out. Detect this and don't return an eror
1904
in this case. Check this this is correct (or how to fix it?)
1905
- fixed possible error in how to determine ATA standard support
1906
for devices with no ATA minor revision number.
1907
- device opened only in read-only not read-write mode. Don't need R/W
1908
access to get smart data. Check this with Andre.
1909
- smartctl now handles all possible choices of "multiple options"
1910
gracefully. It goes through the following phases of operation,
1911
in order: INFORMATION, ENABLE/DISABLE, DISPLAY DATA, RUN/ABORT TESTS.
1912
Documentation has bee updated to explain the different phases of
1913
operation. Control flow through ataPrintMain()
1915
- If reading device identity information fails, try seeing if the info
1916
can be accessed using a "DEVICE PACKET" command. This way we can
1917
at least get device info.
1918
- Modified Makefile to automatically tag CVS archive on issuance of
1920
- Modified drive detection so minor device ID code showing ATA-3 rev
1921
0 (no SMART) is known to not be SMART capable.
1922
- Now verify the checksum of the device ID data structure, and of the
1923
attributes threshold structure. Before neither of these
1924
structures had their checksums verified.
1925
- New behavior vis-a-vis checksums. If they are wrong, we log
1926
warning messages to stdout, stderr, and syslog, but carry on
1927
anyway. All functions now call a checksumwarning routine if the
1928
checksum doesn't vanish as it should.
1929
- Changed Read Hard Disk Identity function to get fresh info from
1930
the disk on each call rather than to use the values that were read
1931
upon boot-up into the BIOS. This is the biggest change in this
1932
release. The ioctl(device, HDIO_GET_IDENTITY, buf ) call should
1933
be avoided in such code. Note that if people get garbled strings
1934
for the model, serial no and firmware versions of their drives,
1935
then blame goes here (the BIOS does the byte swapping for you,
1937
- Function ataSmartSupport now looks at correct bits in drive
1938
identity structure to verify first that these bits are valid,
1940
- Function ataIsSmartEnabled() written which uses the Drive ID state
1941
information to tell if SMART is enabled or not. We'll carry this
1942
along for the moment without using it.
1943
- Function ataDoesSmartWork() guaranteed to work if the device
1945
- Replace some numbers by #define MACROS
1946
- Wrote Function TestTime to return test time associated with each
1947
different type of test.
1948
- Thinking of the future, have added a new function called
1949
ataSmartStatus2(). Eventually when I understand how to use the
1950
TASKFILE API and am sure that this works correctly, it will
1951
replace ataSmartStatus(). This queries the drive directly to
1952
see if the SMART status is OK, rather than comparing thresholds to
1953
attribute values ourselves. But I need to get some drives that fail
1954
their SMART status to check it.
1956
* Thu Oct 17 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1957
- Removed extraneous space before some error message printing.
1958
- Fixed some character buffers that were too short for contents.
1959
Only used for unrecognized drives, so probably damage was minimal.
1961
* Wed Oct 16 2002 Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net>
1962
- Initial release. Code is derived from smartsuite, and is
1963
intended to be compatible with the ATA/ATAPI-5 specifications.
1964
- For IBM disks whose raw temp data includes three temps. print all
1966
- print timestamps for error log to msec precision
1967
- added -m option for Hitachi disks that store power on life in
1969
- added -L option for printing self-test error logs
1970
- in -l option, now print power on lifetime, so that one can see
1971
when the error took place
1972
- updated SMART structure definitions to ATA-5 spec
1974
- added -f and -F options to enable/disable autosave threshold
